Tom Sutton Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I have never been involved closely with installation of sprinklers but the British Standard is BS EN 12845:2004+A2:2009 Fixed firefighting systems. Automatic sprinkler systems. Design, installation and maintenance.

Guest Pierre Paul Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 According to NFPA 13, the sprinkler distance from top of storage to the sprinkler heads for traditional heads is 405 mm. For ESFR heads, it is 0.9m Regards Pierre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Be careful NFPA 13 is an American Code and there can be a variance between there codes and European standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
